All the items in this menu are delicious. But one of my absolutely favorite thing is the orange juice. Itâs ALWAYS fresh and delicious. It reminds me of my grandmotherâs freshly squeezed juice. The staff are very kind and want your experience to be satisfying. Great place!

What a meal! Our son and daughter-in-law brought us here for my birthday. They are members of their wine club and entertain here. We all ordered something different and it was all delicious. I had the gnocchi bolognese with braised short ribs, my husband had the jambalaya, our son, the crab cakes and our daughter-in-law, the salmon chopped salad. Everything was served in a timely manner while allowing us to visit with one another. It was all hot and fresh. Our wait staff was beyond excellent. I wish I got her name but she knew the menu well and was very helpful with choosing our entrees and the bottle of wine. Huge portions and very reasonable. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio on this sunny day. This is a must when dining out.

It's been years since I've been to Walker Brothers, but this past trip reminded me of what I've been missing. Short wait to get in (which is surprising for a Sunday morning). Promptly greeted by the wait staff, and food came out hot and fast and AMAZING!!! Highly recommended!Also, they do have gluten free options for those with food allergies.

Place is very nice and clean inside. Fantastic burgers, very good turkey club sandwich service is good staff is very nice. Fairly large bar with lots of on tap options. Not the biggest place but the food is definitely worth the price which is very reasonable.Jake c,Thank you for your great review and rating!!, Glad we meet all your expectations and you enjoyed your visit!!..

Having moved away from the Chicago area, Iâm rarely able to enjoy this great place. Worried it had rested on reputation over the years I hesitated in visiting.Quickly greeted and told the bar was open seating. The restaurant had a short wait. The bartender Jose D greeted me and advised on what I wanted. Great knowledge of the food and didnât steer me wrong. The food arrived quickly and was fantastic. I had clam chowder, and two types of crab. Yes I ate a ton! As I ate the bartender made small talk and made the entire experience better. I will return and am thankful they are still great!

We visited this restaurant since it was in walking distance of the Hampton Hotel. Choices on menu are eclectic; good food. Server is friendly, knowledgeable about items on the menu. Be ready to be patient and relax as service is slow. I give it a four star because philosophy of restaurant states it uses wholesome and organic products, hand-crafted ingredients and a âfrom scratchâ preparation so I am assuming food ingredients are of the highest quality. Décor is modernistic, colors dark. Noise and sound carries; you might have to talk a little bit louder but this seems normal for this type of restaurant. Cost is reasonable for area. Salad, pizza and french-fries $25 plus tip.

We were seeking somewhere new, despite having our family favorites, and ventured over to the new Randhurst center development. Movie theater, many restaurants including outdoor dining, Costco, Home Depot, TJ Maxx and more. While it was fairly quiet in a Sunday eve, you could tell itâs likely hopping on Friday and Saturday nights!The temperatures were 90+ so we opted to eat inside. They had both a bar side and a restaurant side. Bar side definitely livelier, both had big televisions with baseball on. Our food was fine, nothing over the top special, but very standard bar-type food...nachos, burgers, salads, sandwiches and more. We ate up everything. The fries had a battered coating, the cheese on the nachos was a cheese sauce instead of melted shredded but tasty nonetheless. With all the choices in this area, Iâd definitely return if another place had too long of a wait. Otherwise, Iâd try another of the many options in this new neighborhood hangout.
3. Rise N Dine Pancake Cafe

People absolutely rave about Rise N Dine, but while I have found the service to be excellent, the food is another matter. With the word 'pancake' in the name of the restaurant combined with all of the people gushing about the quality of the pancakes, I actually ordered them on multiple visits. I thought they were spongy and chewy and both the pancakes and syrup were unappealing. Had to order them again to make sure it wasn't just a fluke. Nope.Staples such as eggs, bacon and hash browns are mediocre. All of them seemed overcooked and dry. The one item I *have* been impressed with, however, is their skillets. Cooked to perfection. High quality, fresh meat and vegetables.Service has always been super friendly and helpful on every visit. This is the type of establishment that obviously has regulars and I saw that they recognized several of their customers. The smiling, kind people at Rise N Dine makes me wish I liked the food more.Dear payitfwd71,Thanks for your great review. I have to agree with you on the fact that our pancake selection is not what it should be with more pancake creations as itâs in our name. Iâll revisit the recipe again and soon we will be reinventing our menu and I hope you can give ya another chance. Again, thank you for this great review! Ivan

We went to Palm Court for my husbands birthday. We were excited after looking at their website. The menu looked fabulous and the location was perfect for what we wanted after spending the day at Arlington Race Track.Both the server and the food were both a huge disappointment. Our waiter didn't bother to tell us anything about the specials unless we asked, couldn't tell us how some of them were prepared, didn't know the Market Price of oysters or crab legs without checking, didn't bring horseradish or horseradish sauce for my prime rib until I asked for it and never did bring the au jus...both of which were listed on the menu... and insisted on treating the bill as if my husband were paying, even after I handed him my credit card. The food was very unremarkable. The vegetables were frozen not fresh and barely noticeable on the plate, my prime rib (listed as a house favorite) lacked the deep flavor I associate with it, and my twice baked potato should have been labeled five times baked. My husband said his halibut was very good, he had their red potatoes which did look nice, and his frozen vegetables included half a brussels sprout rather than just a few pieces of chopped broccoli and cauliflower. I will say the oysters on the half shell we had were delicious. I would not return.

The Egg Harbor in Arlington Heights expanded several years ago so those of you who found it too cramped or too small should give it another try. Unfortunately, they have also changed their menu and taken off some old favorites. While I know that it's good to keep innovating and some of their new items are quite good, I still miss some of their old signature dishes! Coffee is decent, and their fresh orange and orange-strawberry juice is delicious. I appreciate the fact that they actually prepare the eggs as you like them - as someone who has a visceral reaction (not in a good way) to under-done eggs, this is important!
